Uneasiness Felt Among Officials of the War Department Effort 3Lule to Keep News of Danger Quiet Reason for Uneasiness Can Not Be Assigned. Washington, July SI. On the eve of the Cuban provincial and munici pal elections, a feeling of uneasiness pervades the war department, al though every effort has been made to conceal it. It is known that Secretary of War Wright has had several con ferences with his predecessor, Judge Taft, on the possibilities of an insur rection In Cuba. Reports from Havana stale that while at present there is no indica tion of a revolution, everyone consid ers there will be trouble after the elections, possibly after the munici pal elections tomorrow ,but more like ly after the presidential elections. The Mlguellstas have openly said, although not recently, that if Zavas is elected they will rebel. A conservative vic tory through the splitting of the lib eral vote will certainly cause the lib erals to fight. Tomorrow's battle of ballots In Cuba will combine provincial and mu nicipal elections, each province elect ing a governor and eight council men and the munlclpalllties electing an alcalde and a proportionate num ber of councllmen. The governors will hold office until February 24, 1913, and the mayors until August 1, 1912. COFFEE The world is full of anonymous coffee : "Java, and Mocha." Who returns your ' money if you don't like em? Tsar tns Mw rm mm ff ra Governor Magoon has decided not to sign the decree authorizing the con struction of water works at Clen fuegos until next week. This has averted a critical condition in that city, where the people are bitterly divided on the water works question. This action ,lt is thought, will pre vent a clash between the rival fac tions, respectively, and supporting thp Rellly contract. According to present plans, the Cu ban army of occupation Is to be with drawn on February 1 next .but many Washington officials acquainted with the situation believe that conditions at that time will be such as to render withdrawal impracticable. Whether the spirit of unrest Is due to the preparation of certain Cubans who hope to control by a show of force once the United States Is out of the" Island ,or whether foreign In terests are encouraging plots so as to compel the continuance of Amer ican occupancy, is not definitely made clear. The foreign Interests ,lt is well known .dread the restoration of complete home rule In Cuba. They foresee excessive taxation and bur densome regulations placed upon their enterprises. The ultimate hope and aim of these foreign and American business Inter ests Is to have this government either take over the island or establish a protectorate, which will give the Cu bans a certain amount of self-government, but will promptly halt any at tempt at maladministration of af fairs. It Is an open secret that army oflcers returning from Cuba are bringing back disquieting tales. A high official In the department was asked If preparations were being pushed for the withdrawal of the troop sfrom Cuba on the date set. He declined to express and opinion, but added that the troops might not be embarked If there was any need for them. None of the officials would ac knowledge, nor would they deny that they had received advices that for eigners In Cuba were subscribing to a fund for the purpose of financing a revolution. The revolution, accord ing to these advices, would be timed for about the first of the year. In that case the American troops, per force, would be compelled to remain In the Island. Pressure would then be brought to bear on Washington to have this government take some defi nite action toward Insuring the future peace of the republic. The American army is well scat tered over the island, and while it consists of ony 5,000 truops, it is dis tributed in such a way that a fair sized body of trained regulars could mobilized at any point in the island in a few hours. Two battalions of the Twenty-seventh Infantry are sta tioned at Camp Columbia, near Ha vana, as a reserve force, which can be sent to any part of the island where trouble Is likely to occur. Contrary to what has been expect ed, It seems now that the provincial and municipal elections will not Indi cate which of the three parties, the Zalista, Miguelista or the conserva tive, will be the strongest In the next general presidential elections. In each town, according to local interests, the parties have combined for the election of a mayor, the Ml guellstas and Zallstas Joining some times against the conservatives or vice versa. It will be difficult to as certain how many votes properly be longing to the party, each party will obtain. State of Ohio, City of Toledo, Lacas Coun ty, n. Frank J.

Chafln, the prohibition standard bearer, declares that before election he will have toured every state of the Union. The annual catalogue of the Ore gon Agricultural College has just been issued and It shows a splendid growth in that Institution. The total registration of students in all courses during the past year was 1158. Of this number 26 were from Umatilla county and there were stu dents in attendance from every one of the 33 counties of the state. Sixteen students attended from California and 3" were enrolled from the state of Washington. The registration also shows 21 other states of the Union represented, while there were three students from Alaska, one from Brit ish Columbia and four from India. Benton county had but 198 students during the past year. In view of the questions that have been raised regarding the state edu cational Institutions some facts con cerning O. A. C.'s source of revenue will be Interesting. The following bearing upon the same Is from the catalogue Just Issued and shows that most of the money for the support of the college comes from the federal government: Foundation nml Endowment. In pursuance of an act of congress approved by President Lincoln. July 2, 1S62, a grant of land was made to each state In the Union In the amount of 30,000 acres, or Its equivalent, for each senator and representative In congress to which the state was entitl ed by the apportionment of the cen sus of 1860. The proceeds under this act were to constitute a perpetual fund, the principal of which was to remain forever undiminished; but the interest arising from said fund was to be inviolably applied by each state which should avail Itself of the bene fits of the act, to the support and maintenance of a "College where the leading objects shall be, without ex cluding other scientific and classical studies, and Including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts. In such manner as the legislatures of the states may respec tively prescribe, In order to promote the liberal pursuits and professions In life." Ninety thousand acres of land were apportioned to Oregon, and by an act approved October 9. 1862, the legislative assembly of Oregon accept ed the provisions of the congressional law. The Lund Grant Fund. The subsequent sale of this land has netted the college approximately $200,000. This at present Is Invested In securities bearing 6 per cent Inter est. The act of congress of 1862 ex plicitly states that no part of the funds so appropriated or the Interest aris ing therefrom shall be used for the purchase, erection or maintenance of any building or buildings. The Hatch Fund. Under an act of congress, approved March 2, 1887, the college receives 115,000 a year for the maintenance of an agricultural experiment station, "to aid In acquiring and diffusing among the people useful and practi cal Information on subjects connect ed with agriculture." Tlio Morrill Fund. On August 30, 1890, an act was passed by congress "to apply a por tion of the proceeds of the public lands to the more complete endow ment and support of the colleges for the benefit of agriculture and the mechanic arts established under the provisions of the act of 1862." This act provided that In 1890 $15,000 should be paid to each of the land grant colleges, and that the amount so appropriated should be Increased by the sum of $1000 annually for 10 years, and that thereafter the amount annually appropriated should con tinue be be $26,000. Under an act of congress approved March 4, 1907, known as the Nelson amendment, this fund Is Increased by the sum of $5000 for the first fiscal year ending June 30, 1908, and by an additional $5000 for each succeeding year until the to toal annual amount Is $50,000. Tim AdonM Fund. An act of congress approved March 20, 1906, appropriated an Initial $5000 for that year, and $2000 additional for each year thereafter until the annual amount shall reach $15,000. This fund Is "to be applied only to paying the necessary expenses of conducting original researches or experiments bearing directly on the agricultural Industry" of the state, and therefore supplements the Hatch fund In the maintenance of the experiment sta tion. In addition to the Income from the national government, the college Is dependent upon the state legislature for such appropriations as are re quired for the maintenance and de velopment of the institution, In ac cordance with the provisions of the acts of congress, and In response to the Industrial and educational de mands of the state.
